That is absolutely beautiful. I have been gathering the good molting feathers from all of my guys so I will hopefully be making something soon.

He said himself his Cock s a good fighter, he seems a little more than suspicious.

Have Y'all ever dealt with bobcats and fishers? They're awful, oh and don't forget raccoons and foxes! These are my worst predators. I've never had to deal with Coyotes but we have them.

Yes. I have

How big are coyotes? Like compared to other dogs? Can't believe they'd take a dog

we have them hear there is no season for them as far as hunting them. they are getting bolder and they kill cats as well as dogs. I here them at night scares the crape out of me . was out last night the geese were making a ruckus all I had was a flash light but it was the geese fighting through the fence 2 male. boys .

Oh those boys.

I have lights that are solar they have 3 settings so you can have them turned off an only come on hen activated then there is a setting where they stay on low and come on when activated I bought them off Amazon I love them. They hopefully will startle a predator enough when they come on to scare them off. Makes me feel alot better having them out around my coops. These lights have LED lights in them and they are bright when they come on.

About mid dog size but some of them, at least around here, are absolutely MASSIVE and closer to like German Shepherd size. They are also incredibly bold and not scared of people. Sometimes they’ll just sit there at a distance and watch you and not move away. And they do kill dogs as well as cats quite frequently. But I guess it must be more in the cities/suburbs and if they have enough prey. They are a lot more bold in urban areas. Although they kill cats even in the country and I know a lot of people who have lost their barn cats or indoor/outdoor cats. And they will go after dogs too but less common I think. Mostly small dogs.

They are also very smart and have been known to lure dogs away from home to kill them. One of them will come in and distract the dog and the dog will run after it, usually to chase it off it’s property, but sometimes it wants to play with it or sometimes they send females in heat or whatever, and then when they get the dog alone, the pack will move in and kill it.

At least I’ve heard a few of stories of that happening. Don’t know for sure it’s 100% true but idk
